Sameena's Chickpea Mango Salad

A while ago my cousin sent me a recipe for this salad. I wanted to try it because of the mix of sweet and savory but I never had all the ingredients around. I recently went to my parents and when mangoes are in season they give me a big bag of them. I had some peppers and I just needed to go buy some jalapenos to make this salad. I had to make some changes because Sameena is American and in America you get 15 oz cans of chickpeas..here in Canada we get 19 oz cans. So my change was simply to double the dressing and I also added salt. We really liked this salad. I loved the sweetness of the mango.

I know my son would have loved it but he was being a stubborn 4 year old at the time and didn't want to try it. Next time I would add some more mango and jalapeno. I couldn't really taste the jalapeno.
